A) Drag Coefficient What happens when you give the ball a gentle sideways push? Why? When the all is !i"en a sli!ht si#eways $ush% it will return to its initial $osition &to the 'enter(. )he reason *or that is that the $ressure in the area where the *an is lowin! is less than that in area surroun#in! it &+atm(. So when the all is $ushe# !ently the atmos$heri' $ressure $ushes the all to its initial $osition. We ,now that the $ressure insi#e is less 2 2 Psurr v surr P2 v 2 + = + = const 2 2 than the surroun#in! $ressure sin'e : an# " surroun#in! is -ero e'ause it

Recorded air velocity . 5.8 m/s. Air density . 1.3 kg/m3 Ball area .0.014m2 Ball mass . /.6 10 / kg Calculated drag coefficient:
